Wilthorpe Marsh (North) and Lower Barugh Sewage farm farm
Failed to get a Jack Snipe yesterday so thought I would try again. I only did the north section of Wlithorpe Marsh today and was immediately rewarded by flushing 2 Water rails, 4 Snipe and 1 Jack Snipe. also in the area were 28 lapwings and a Green woodpecker. A had spotted Upland Tyke on the sewage farm so I a gave him a call and thereafter we birded the Sewage farm together. At the sewage farm we had 1 Green Sandpiper, 70 Pied Wags, 50 Meadow Pipits, 2 Grey Wags, 2 Sparrowhawks, 1 Kestrel, 3 Read Bunts and a Mute Swan. Upland Tyke had previousley had a Goosander on the river. Whilst chatting before we left we saw a fox and a Pergrine falcon flying north.
